Which one of the following refers to a system in which the central element is an elected legislative body whose laws are implemented by executies who are a part of an organised bureaucracy?

State system

Acephalous system

Political democracy

Socialism

Explanation:

- Option 1: State system

This usually refers to an organized political community under one government. It can have different forms—not necessarily always with an elected legislative body and bureaucracy.

- Option 2: Acephalous system

This means “headless system”—a society without central leadership or formal governing structure, often found in some tribal communities.

- Option 3: Political democracy

This is where an elected legislative body makes laws and an executive branch (which could be a bureaucracy) implements them. This matches the system described in the question.

- Option 4: Socialism

This is an economic and sometimes political system where the means of production are owned or regulated by the community or the state; it doesn’t specifically describe the political structure in the question.
